Some Newcastle fans have taken to Twitter to congratulate former Magpies striker Joselu on his impressive run of form for current club Alaves in La Liga.

This comes after the Newcastle news Twitter account @ChronicleNUFC shared a post on their official page that included an article from their website on how Joselu is thriving at his new club.

This post then gathered a number of replies from Newcastle who were quick to share their happiness for the Spaniard.

Here’s a sample of Newcastle fans congratulating Joselu on his goal-scoring form:

The 29-year-old spent two years at the Tyneside club, making 52 appearances, scoring seven goals and making two assists (per Transfermarkt). This season at Alaves has seen the forward score six goals in 13 appearances for the La Liga side.

Despite not being a success at Newcastle, some Magpies fans still appreciate what he did for the club during his two-year stint.

What do we think? 

Even though he didn’t have the best time at Newcastle during his time at the club, it’s heart-warming to see some Magpies fans happy to see their former player do well at his new club. If Joselu had stayed at Newcastle, maybe his fortunes at the club could have changed under new manager Steve Bruce instead of Rafa Benitez.
